Detailed Description
Nicknamed the “Venice of the Alps,” Annecy offers a romantic atmosphere surrounded by mountains and one of the purest lakes in Europe. Travel from Geneva by comfortable coach and discover its crystal-clear canals, pastel-coloured houses, and stunning scenery.
Step into the charming Old Town, where cobblestone streets, flower-filled façades, and lively canals create a magical setting. Enjoy a guided walking introduction or explore independently at your own pace. Highlights include the iconic Palais de l’Isle, one of France’s most photographed landmarks, and the Château d’Annecy, offering panoramic views over the town and lake. Stroll along Rue Saint-Claire, lined with boutiques, cafés, and bakeries reflecting the city’s vibrant atmosphere.
After the introduction, enjoy free time to relax by Lake Annecy, explore local markets, or simply take in the alpine scenery. Rich in cultural heritage and home to museums, castles, and exhibitions, Annecy is recognised as a “Town of Art and History,” highly cherished by its inhabitants
